<h2>Equations of State for Seawater<a class="headerlink" href="#equations-of-state-for-seawater" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>This module provides a few simple equations of state that can be used for
seawater.  Some are very good (e.g., density) and others are just taken from 
tables in the Handbook of Physics and Chemistry for pure water (e.g., surface
tension).  Eventually, these should be replaced with routines from the 
official seawater equation of state.</p>
